Martinez Hardwood Floors

Restorations

With a growing number of heritage properties in our portfolio, rejuvenating decade and/or century old floors refurbishing them back to life is something we take pride in. At Martinez Hardwood Floors, we aim to bring back those character attributes found in 100 year old floors. Distinguished by nail and bolt patina, knot holes and streaking, we specialize in restoring turn of the century as well as mid century hardwood floors by restoring that special charm reminiscent of an era gone by.

Dustless Sanding

Our advanced Bona Dust Containment System uses a two step cyclonic intake with a hospital-grade HEPA filter, eliminating the need to expose collected dust to your home. At Martinez Hardwood Floors, we remove the excess dust before it even meets your environment. With no airbone dust generated, it means a healthier space for us to work in, a healthier home for you to live in and a safer option for your children and pets.

Repairs

Repairs are common when it comes to hardwood floors for a variety of reasons. This list is long but whether it’s because you are renovating your house, the floors are simply showing their age through, wear and tear from heavy traffic or rambunctious kids, floors that have been damaged (leaky dishwasher, older pets, eager tenants or inattentive movers) we have seen it all! No matter what the cause, Martinez Hardwood Floors can help. We are experts in patching and feathering in hardwood to match existing wood floors creating a seamless cover up – leaving your guests none the wiser.

Refinishing

When choosing a finish that is right for your floor, it is important to understand the pros and cons. The main difference between Waterborne finish and Oil Modified finish are the emission levels, the appearance and the feel. Waterborne finishes provide the benefit of faster dry times and a floor that is more natural in look and feel. Oil Modified finishes on the other hand, will enhance the natural amber highlights found in most floors and come in matte, satin or shiny. Stains come in a variety of different colours and are applied to the floors before the finish to change the colour and style of a hardwood floor. At Martinez Hardwood Floors we are proud to work exclusively with Bona©’s top of the line finishes.

Facts:

Waterborne finishes have low odor and low Volatile Organic Compounds (V.O.C’s)
Waterborne finishes take up to 3 applications with dry times of 5 – 6 hours
Oil Modified finishes take up to 3 applications with dry times of 10 – 12 hours
